I started by controlling his master, and the protagonist begged me to slow down my kicking.

Before Cheng Ran burned the letter, he hadn't even glanced at what Ye Chen had written.

No need to even think about it.

The content is definitely a message expressing the longing and yearning of the man.

What does this have to do with his trade?

Next, he will have to give a proper welcome to Mu Yunxi, who is about to emerge from seclusion.

As for how to welcome them...

The system has already provided the answer.

[Ding! Urgent mission!]

[Mission Objective: Force Senior Sister Mu Yunxi to sign a slave contract, making her pay for her past disrespect!]

[Quest Reward: Awaken "Golden Eyes of Illusion"]

In fact, when we first entered this cave...

The system then popped up this task.

Its content was so excessive that it rivaled the previous mission from the Azure Palace.

They actually want him to...

How can this be allowed?

Although...

There were some minor conflicts between him and Mu Yunxi.

Mu Yunxi prided herself on being a righteous genius and had always looked down on his ruthless and unscrupulous behavior in pursuit of profit.

After learning that he had killed people by using sexual exploitation techniques, he even went to the Elders' Hall to slander him!

He said he wanted to be imprisoned for life!

She's a total bitch!

but!

Forcing someone to do this is just too cruel.

As a virtuous person.

Cheng Ran swore that he really didn't want to do this.

If possible, he would like to get along well with Senior Sister Mu.

Unfortunately...

The reward is the "Golden Eyes of Truth"!

Although I don't know what it's used for, the name sounds incredibly cool.

There's nothing we can do about it.

Cheng Ran shrugged helplessly, already having a plan in mind.

He entered the inner chamber of the cave.

Beneath the vast, high dome, Mu Yunxi sat cross-legged in the center of the jade mat.

What's most eye-catching is the pair of exquisite, translucent jade feet encased in pure white silk stockings.

Exquisite craftsmanship and breathtaking beauty!

Of course, Mu Yunxi's proud and upright demeanor should not be underestimated.

Based on visual inspection, it is called chest cavity D.

Add to that a pair of cool, untouched peach blossom eyes.

It's like a light cloud obscuring the moon, or a flowing wind swirling snow—it's incredibly beautiful!

However, Cheng Ran was not a lustful person, and he wouldn't be so easily captivated by a stunningly beautiful woman.

He now needs to make all the necessary preparations and wait for Mu Yunxi to wake up.

Then, give her a proper lesson in dogma.

Thinking of this, Cheng Ran took out paper and pen from his storage ring.

......

......

At the same time, Mu Yunxi was doing her best to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.

She has now reached the final step.

Confront your inner demons!

During a breakthrough, inner demons will amplify the cultivator's weaknesses to an extreme degree.

And based on this weakness, it conjures up terrifying scenes!

If one's resolve is not firm.

Then you will be devoured by your inner demons!

However, she has extreme confidence in her talent and ability.

She is on the path of cultivating immortality.

They have never encountered any opponent.

He was ranked first on the Qingyun List, and he crossed borders to slay demons... His deeds are too numerous to mention.

Those so-called prodigies.

All I could do was look up and gaze at her back!

That's her arrogance.

But just when she was certain of her success, the scene before her suddenly changed.

The most familiar Sword-Questioning Peak and Sword Platform appeared before her eyes.

The inner demon that appeared in her mind was none other than herself.

Then another woman appeared, wielding a long sword and moving with graceful, light steps. In an instant, she pierced through the woman's chest.

What?!

Mu Yunxi stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

At the same time, her soul returned from her sea of ​​consciousness to reality.

"puff!"

Mu Yunxi suddenly opened her eyes and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Was she defeated by her inner demons?

The aloof young woman was utterly shocked!

Her face was extremely pale, like snowflakes flying in the air on a high mountain.

She had encountered inner demons during her previous breakthroughs, but none of them had ever been able to defeat her!

What exactly is going on?

However, she has no time to look for the reasons for her failure now.

After a failed breakthrough, one must first heal the wounds to prevent damage to the foundation of one's Dao.

Oh, right, Ye Chen!

At that moment, she suddenly remembered that Ye Chen had said he would come to pick her up from seclusion earlier that day.

Although his childhood sweetheart's cultivation level was truly useless, her character was good, so he was still someone he could trust.

With this thought in mind, Mu Yunxi looked around the cave.

But she didn't see Ye Chen.

Instead, I saw someone I shouldn't have seen.

A guy who disgusted her.

"Cheng Ran, what are you doing here?"

Mu Yunxi's pale face grew even colder, and her tone was chilling.

You should know that among all the people in the Holy Land, the one she hated the most was Cheng Ran.

Cheng Ran is not only shameless!

The way he looked at her never showed any respect for his senior sister.

However, none of this matters.

The most crucial issue is...

Why was Cheng Ran, that shameless scumbag, able to enter the cave?

She clearly set up a restriction.

And this scumbag should be locked in the confessional!

Cheng Ran twisted his neck.

He had a completely calm and collected expression.

He walked to Mu Yunxi's side and whispered to this aloof senior sister:

"Senior Sister Mu, of course I'm here to protect you."

Mu Yunxi's eyes showed even more disgust.

When did I ever need this scumbag to protect the law?

However, the situation was urgent, and she didn't bother arguing with Cheng Ran. She simply asked in a cold tone:

Where is Ye Chen?

Why don't you talk about my husband?

"Junior Brother Ye, he's not in his cave. What do you need him for?"

Cheng Ran waved his hand.

"It's none of your business."

Mu Yunxi answered coldly, but her expression froze for a moment.

Not in the cave...

What does this mean?

Could it be that... Ye Chen didn't come today?

This is unreasonable. Ye Chen always keeps his word and rarely breaks his promises.

However, Cheng Ran, that scumbag, showed no signs of lying...

Mu Yunxi's peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly.

I can't figure it out.

At this moment, Cheng Ran sat down next to Mu Yunxi without a second thought, feigning curiosity:

"By the way, Senior Sister Mu didn't seem to be in good shape just now. Did something go wrong during her breakthrough?"

"It's none of your business either."

Mu Yunxi's tone grew even colder, her peach blossom eyes filled with disgust.

"How can it not be related? You are my senior sister, and I am your junior brother. We are a loving couple."

Cheng Ran's lips curled up, his tone quite amused:

"Besides, Senior Sister Mu, your spiritual energy seems to be gradually dissipating, which worries me a bit!"

The words had barely left his mouth when...

Mu Yunxi's peach blossom eyes trembled slightly.

She discovered that Cheng Ran wasn't making it up; her spiritual power was indeed rapidly disappearing.

Moreover, I felt like a puppet whose strings had been cut, my whole body became weak and powerless, as limp as mud.

At the same time, his cultivation level was also plummeting.

Start from the tenth level of the Core Formation Realm.

I've reached the ninth level of the Core Formation Realm again.

Then, he progressed to the eighth level of the Core Formation Realm.

......

In the end, he actually fell to the fifth level of the Core Formation Realm!

Mu Yunxi's face was gloomy, knowing that this was probably due to the corruption of her inner demons.

She hadn't expected the effects of the inner demons to be so powerful, causing her such great damage.

No, if we delay any longer, the situation will probably only get worse.

We must quickly dispel our inner demons!

Thinking about it, Mu Yunxi prepared to go outside the cave.

She was going to find her master.

Master will surely have a way.

But he had only taken one step, not even two.

His calves felt as if they were bound by a thousand-pound shackle, and he couldn't exert any strength at all.

Mu Yunxi lost her balance and fell to the ground.

"Senior sister, is it really okay for you to be so stubborn? Seeing you in pain, I feel a little sorry for you."

Cheng Ran watched her with great interest, and, not wanting to miss out on the excitement, said:

"Senior sister wants to ask Master for help, right? I can run errands for you."

"roll!"

Mu Yunxi glared at him fiercely.

She could easily see that Cheng Ran was deliberately mocking her.

This shameless scoundrel has disliked her for a long time and has been wanting to see her make a fool of herself!

However, she is the number one genius on the Qingyun Ranking, how could she possibly need the help of such a shameless person?

"I have my own way of solving this, so you don't need to worry about it, you scum."

Mu Yunxi immediately sat down and took out a spirit pill from her storage ring.

After swallowing it, she silently recited the purification mantra that her master had taught her.

She plans to take a two-pronged approach.

Used to alleviate the influence of inner demons.

But Cheng Ran, who was watching the show from the sidelines, had a mocking look in his eyes:

"My senior sister is so adorably silly."

As soon as she finished speaking, a wave of poison spread from behind Mu Yunxi's ear.

Run it down along the neck.

Finally, it swept over her entire delicate body.

The feeling was like countless ants crawling all over my body, an unbearable itching sensation!

A drop of fragrant sweat slid down her beautiful cheek to her jawline.

She felt like she was going to break down.

"What's going on? Why am I like this...?"

Just as she was feeling uneasy, that mocking voice came again.

"Senior Sister Mu, in my opinion, you have been corrupted by the demon of desire, which has caused you to be poisoned by lust. In this situation, simply reciting the Purification Mantra will not be effective."

Cheng Ran walked slowly to Mu Yunxi's side, gazing at her slender figure with a sly smile in his eyes.
